Naturalista Deployment Drive

While on Facebook, I watched the following Youtube video posted about a woman trying to gather hair products for our troops overseas. 
I NEVER thought about how hard it must be for natural women fighting a WAR!!  Who has time to even think about their hair, let alone research and find products which will work for them.  Please watch this video, and send in your haircare products . . .  or get them to me, and I will include them with my bunch!!  (kim@lovingmylocks.com)

Hurricane Irene

It has been a WHILE since my last post, and I apologize for that.  Hurricane Irene did a number on my house.  There was a tree that landed in the front of the house.  I could not even get out of my front door.  As a matter of fact, here is a picture of what it looked like when I opened my door.  Amazingly, the pot on the step did not move during the hurricane or when the tree fell!! 

Sadly another tree landed on the shed in the back yard.  This tree also took down half of the pole which held the transformer and provided power to my house, no power, no internet, no tv, no HOT showers, no hot food, no cold food/drinks . . . . .
8 evenings later, we are so happy to report that we have POWER!!  One major thing that made this experience a little better was that I did not need electricity to do my Sisterlocks!!

4th Installation

WOW, I just finished my 4th installation, and I am in love with sharing my talents with others.  I believe I get more excited than my clients, because I already know from personal experience what they are going to experience.  One of my clients sent me a text that read . . .

“Kim, thanks for everything! I love my locks and the way you took care of me.  I look forward to my re-tightening and the growth of my locks.”
That comment really made my day, it felt good!!  Like my talents are actually being used in a way to change  the way people view their hair, I love it!!

3rd Installation

This past weekend, I completed my 3rd installation of Sisterlocks.  They came out beautiful!! 

Took a total of 19 hours and did a total of 517 Sisterlocks.
Installing Sisterlocks works different body parts and muscles when compared to braiding hair, and I am finding that my shoulders get sore if I don’t relax.  It is official, I am going to start scheduling a massage the day after my installs. . . here are some pics, enjoy!!
